Gurgaon Restaurants
Gurgaon, described as the Manhattan of India, is characterized by its tall buildings, its cosmopolitan population and its vibrant cultural and food scene. Restaurants in Gurgaon cater to all tastes and lifestyles, which explains the proliferation of a number of Italian and Chinese restaurants. These restaurants offer something for everyone: a quick bite for the professional on the go; the family reunion, characterized by hearty lunches and outrageous laughter; the tranquility and the environment for the loving couple and so on.
Earth is an Italian-style restaurant, with a whiff of the Catalan Landscape and its people, its culture and of course its cuisine, all rolled into one. The decor is strictly Italian, very chic and very modern, and the food is well served, including the best of Italian cuisine. This bar-restaurant has a wide selection of the best beer brought from the Catalan vineyards.
Earth was established in 2006 and has built a reputation for exquisitely prepared food served in a charming setting highlighted by earthy tones of cream, gray and earth colours. The village feel is enhanced by strategically placed logs, earthen lamps, books and mirrors. Special mention must be made of the different gastronomic preparations such as mousska, steak with cottage cheese, grilled prawns and bruschetta. Desserts include timeless classics like chocolate cake that can be eaten until the kingdom comes.
Jing is another restaurant that has made a name for itself in a very short time. This Chinese-style restaurant offers the best Chinese food at affordable prices, served in a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. This Gurgaon restaurant offers delicious food including steamed shao mai chicken, prawn and spring onion salad, corn and pine nut salad, spare ribs, steamed snapper, kung pao chicken, udon noodles and braised lamb. The food is wholesome, lightly sprinkled with exotic spices and interspersed with the most delicate flavors.
Jing, pronounced Ching, is the Chinese term for gold; the rarest of metals on earth, and like metal, Jing’s cuisine can best be described as rare. The food does not pretend to be Chinese because it is authentic; prepared under the close supervision of Chinese Chef Wang Le from Beijing, China. Special mention deserves the steamed snapper that melts in your mouth leaving you wanting more. The dessert is equally sinful, consisting of pieces of crunchy sweet fillings, dusted with powdered sugar.
Chinese restaurants, however, arguably had it relatively easy as the groundwork had already been done beforehand, courtesy of the teeming army of pan-wielding home chefs doling out quantities of MSG-laced chowmein from their ramshackle shacks on the edge Of the road.
